Overpriced Scarf Round Up

Two scarves, as awesome as they are overpriced, are now available after a seasonal hiatus. First up is Drakes' incomparable black watch wool silk reversible number. Featured on Mister Mort a while back, this has to be the coolest scarf on the market. For your money you not only get the ultimate tartan, but to make matters that much more stylish, there is a silk navy and white pin dot pattern on the opposite side. Part scarf and part ascot, is this really worth $212? Drakes enthusiasts will tell you you're getting two $106 scarves (not that outlandish of a pricepoint) and how the quality is unmatched by anyone. I'll leave any reasoning up to you. Up next we have a scarf some of you might recognize from its cameo on a hit teen drama featuring sex, drugs and good looking people. J. Press' silk patchwork scarf is a one of a kind item being sold at a one of a kind price. This is probably as bold as a scarf gets before your less stylish friends start making fun of you. Actually, your friends will probably make fun of your for wearing a scarf in the first place. I'll spare you the talk of putting your funds into investment pieces. We're all adults here, for the most part, and can manage our own money. At the very least you now have a postscript for that letter you're writing to Santa.
